Never believe anyone who has served in the Nigerian government!

Free economy must first exist and allow to exist ! Study the micro economy of some local markets before govt starts to interfere with taxes and secondary policies that destroyed the market forces!

Nobody is asking for subsidies and bailout, just provide the enabling environment! Fvvls ! They travel abroad to enjoy free market economy and come home to choke the masses dur to selfish interest!

Lagos was doing well untill BAT brought in NURTW

Are you guys sure this man is not becoming delusional? He seems to be happy with the situation of the country!

FreeStuffsNG:
I heard "I am a traditionally Yoruba boy, I did my dobale (as a Yoruba boy"

Prostrating in Yoruba is IDOBALE which means to meet the earth, its a symbol of planting and fertility.

May God bless Asiwaju Tinubu and the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Check my signature for free stuffs!

Is he acting like a blessed man?

Elxandre:
Nigerian actors didn't make money back then.
Only the enlightened ones who are perhaps lecturers or have other ventures are comfortable now.

You have no idea, you can't compare the economic situation and value of the currency in the 80s to the catastrophe now!

Everything depreciated in Nigeria

Buhari was the president and the only available food was rice ! Nigeria was spiralling down then under lots of military coups! These girls are the taste of young soldiers and civil servants

Sahara reporters news are one and only, no corroboration, no interview, no witness! Everything just happened as they said it!

How do we separate facts from fiction

Guys are u sure this man is not getting delusional that all is well with Nigerians and he's doing great!

Na so e dey start o! Cos I don't know why he would encourage anyone to do portrait for him on democracy day if not that he's getting delusional and rewarding himself as an hero of democracy!

Pls at what point and how is this merited to and credited to him!

Yes! He has a history but ever since you become president, Nigeria has been taking free fall ! Abeg ooo! Make una check his mental health and status before we have a delusional presido!

SR news are always incomplete and pseudo facts ! They don't usually get cooperation from their investigation. So how do we separate facts from fictional writers !

So many Nigerians require immediate needs?
Sharing money is the fastest means of skipping redtape and avoiding lionshareholders!

We are not normal so manage all the drama u seee

If you are wasteful Nigeria will encourage you! If you are hardworking Nigeria will discouraged u!

I do tell my wife about Hollywood stars we watched while growing up and the kind of money they made with fame and hardwork!

They still live good life and in wealth in contrast to Nigerian actors in same year who are now battered and unrecognizable

AmiableMosquito:
Now, you have introduced an entirely different issue which I agree with you on, to a very great extent.
There is a reason this maxim came into light..... "for whom much is given, much is also expected".
Corruption is endemic in all sectors in Nigeria, public and private alike. Perhaps, worse in public but not absent in private.
I used NIPOST as an example, have you visited the post offices nationwide and seen the level of dilapidation despite the billions generated by the service annually? The staff are poorly remunerated and they don't keep any percentage of their revenue, so any opportunity to steal from their revenue, they try to grab it with both hands. Because of this, their annual revenue has been on the decrease for consecutive years now.

I understand that there are corrupt elements in these elite RGAs and that can be tackled by proper auditing and political will of the government to block all leakages. However, will you rather prefer that government reduces their collection percentage which in turn affects their productivity and revenue drive? Everyone will suffer for it, I can assure you.

Whether in the poor and average MDAs or in the elite GOEs, there is corruption. What we should be focused on is how to stop or reduce corruption in public service generally not advocate for reduction of collection fees which is mandated by the law creating these GOEs.

I don't mind them keeping a % or quoting virements, they deserve it! My cardinal point is they act like the alpha and omega of their revenue and always insincere probably the reason AGORA is torchlight them

I always visit nipost and their only office in good shape is the one at vi nipost at ologun agbaje!

I believe they should share and be honest on what they made and what they keep! But it's the opposite so someone should either expose or speak up ! The money is from Nigeria for Nigerians not theirs

Honestly I can't help laughing at the fall!!

The guards should av flanked the 3-4 steps!
I have led octogenarian climb short stairs and it's same process, flank the 1-3 steps and see that their hands are on the rails. When they reach the top end of the stairs, position urself at the foot of the steps with 1 of ur leg on the 3rd or 2nd step to catch them if they fall back !

Those comparing Biden fall: the flight steps are much and biden need to climb slowly but he wanted to jog it!

The BAT fall is pure incompetence on the part of his guards and his own poor physical state!

Yesterday I saw a babe tumbling from the stairs and end up kneeling down at the end of the fall

I was like kii re ooo!
Happened in my office

Macnnoli4:
They should not fear na! The so-called DSS warnings is already becoming a running gag. Anytime protests is planned, DSS will talk but last last, it is Police and not DSS operatives the protesters will encounter on ground. I guess it is a mind game they like to play.

They are the ones organizing counter protest and taking px of spokesperson and organisers
They eventually invite arrest and threaten organisers

During GEJ I attended every protest and I was happy ! Today I feel sorry I can't anymore.
You have no idea how I speak at protest

Pls find me if you are an activist

Something is wrong with this picture called Nigeria! The painter was in a bad mood and the expression is off cue!

Anthem when there is no life in the human that will recite it!!!

AmiableMosquito:
I love your submission albeit flawed.
The news article has achieved its aim of vilifying these RGAs. The reality however is that they keep only 4% of the total generated with exception of NCS that keeps 7% because of its staff strength. These percentages look huge (maybe they actually are) because what they generate is also huge and it's what the entire federation depends on.

Without these revenues, there will be no money to pay the DSS and Navy you mentioned. Go and read about NIPOST, NTA and few other revenue generating agencies that are doing very poorly in terms of revenue generation. Find out why they are almost comatose and then you will understand why it is important to allow these GOEs retain a small percentage of their revenue collection. The corruption you are shouting will be worse if you poorly remunerate these workers of the elite RGAs.

You sincerely expect FIRS staff and National Orientation Agency staff to be on the same salary structure? That's a joke!

I agree with some remuneration for welfare and running the agency but can you confidently say they are honest and judicious!

A cursory look at these agencies always see malfeasance, their directors steal on huge scale and takes a very long time to discover!

We still av to hold that 4% accountable if it's actually 4%! Try relate with their staff u will be shocked what their lunch cost . Personally I see it as wasteful economy. We cant be half rich and badly poor and at same time extremely rich in one country!

AmiableMosquito:
I don't understand what this news article aims to achieve. These are productive revenue generating agencies of government that brings the bulk of the money that the lazy and unproductive state governors come to share in Abuja monthly and which they subsequently loot and plunder to the detriment of the citizens.

If these agencies meet and even sometimes surpass their targets, there is nothing wrong in taking a cost of collection for smooth operations. Afterall, these agencies are self-funded and do not rely on the national treasury to pay their staff. If not for these league of GOEs, a majority of other government agencies are more of liabilities than assets, with many of them not carrying out their core mandate because they are either too clueless or constrained to do so.

Sorry sir, no agency or department of the federation can absolve itself of national expenses or remitting income !

Whatever revenue they accrue should not be expanded by them arbitrarily or they have sole administration of it! Government machineries work hand in hand to produce and there's no monopoly of revenue generation! DSS protects the borders too and nuprc relies on navy for protection of the sea and oil infrastructures, it's a web of dependency and handshake!

Am aware they quote virements fine! But and they share these monies indiscriminately amongst their selves! This is corruption !!

Reason why ppl jostle to be in this rich agency and bribery in their recruitment process is rife!
They are to be regulated, monitored and every penny return to national coffers and not reserve or embezzle under any guise

One stewpeed ex they boast say e dey go UK ! I just laff !!!

LEGALSER:

Hustler ! Hope u are using the certificate to work & chop

Oshima:
Please dear Daddy and Mommy, forgive me for bringing this here. am doing this because av run out of options and I don't have any other choice. My name is Kelly, I gave birth to my boy Ayomide 2 years ago and since then it has been a rollercoaster of one event to another. My fiance abandoned us and I move in back with my parents taking care of my son all alone without any assistance even though he was always falling very sick all the time. I notice that he always feels discomfort when his trying to breath so I looked for money to take my son to the hospital. He was diagnosed with congenital heart defect, a hole in his heart, as the cause of his breathing problems. I've cried my eyes out but if only crying can solve problem. I can't stand to see my child in pain.

I've gone almost everywhere I can possibly go but no hope except for hospital. Doctors say that he will need to undergo surgery at UCH for N4.5million and my family with the help of some very kind hearted people have been able to raise part of N3 million. We have sold off almost everything valuable to us but it's not yet enough, that why I am appealing to well meaning Nigerians, if you're touched to save my son's life, please find it in your kind heart to extend a hand of help to him. Nothing is too small in the sight of God. Am calling kind hearted people, please help save my boys life. Please am also calling upon any NGO that can accept my sons condition please. May God almighty bless you immensely and wipe away sorrow from your eye. Amen.

Nice2023:
The minister should have handled this matter within the ministry rather than exposing it to the world.

I hate sexual intimidation but I think this matter was not handled properly.

Exactly I know their rules and it's well structure
Am surprised a lawyer is involved!

I think the Minister wants the PS gone and he has gotten the Leeway

You hide a lawyer against your boss u are still working with ? !!! Oh boy !!!

And FF for that matter! There's more to this
PS they are ready to remove you ! There's a civil service rule that has complex stages and reporting line, how can you involve a lawyer !

Intimidation and corruption will not allow us know facts in this country

All these id!0ta doing pseudo journalism and putting ppl on sir without proper training, counselling and evaluating the consequences or legal ramifications should be arrested and sent to jail

They are doing it for the money and fame, first to break breaking need and attract traffic to their bullsheet!

Broadcasting is a professional service that has ethics and rules, it's not for any bloody blogger overnight !

Don't attempt to bring stories online if you don't understand emotional, psychological aspect of victims!

She should be arrested as an enabler, 2nd degree culpable homicide

Fvcking retard

It's a difficult one,

I will k!ll those who wish me dead!
Not all Palestinians bear arms against Israel but all would want to see Israel non-existence!

Learn to live with your neighbor in peace or k!ll him....it's either him or you- c'est fini

Ever watched valley of wolves?
Communities in Palestine knows what's going down but they always keep mum in retaliation against Israel

I love this guy status in the industry and his hard working nature! When he entered the industry, I promoted him a lot !

Every December of 2012 to 2016 I played his mix CD at our family reunion at Ikoyi!

I wish I will meet him, cos he somehow made my bachelor life pleasant and memorable!

He's slightly older than me and I envy his achievement! God bless your new age bro

Just do and don't tell us what we can read on the internet! Lagos is a scum, dirty den of thieves and harlots!

Commuting in Lagos is worse that riding a rodeo! All these executive policies needs to transform to hardwork and sincerity!

Once it rains, All hell is let loose in Lagos !!!

I have no idea who these ppl are and I mix with achievers a lot!!
Cam, glam and controversies with lots of relationship scam, is that worth been called celebrity?

That's why I like BBC, they don't glorify scandalous ppl, they will call you what you are with facts

Mindlog:
Another poor attempt at "tales by moonlight"!

Another social media tale of what never happened!

What is the Nigeria Bar Association's ethical provision regarding that?

It is like a licensed marriage therapist who handled the marriage counselling of a married couple and they went on to get a divorce, 2 weeks later, the therapist got married to one of them! , The therapist is sure losing the practicing license as one can only date/marry a former client after 2 to 5 years of cessation of therapy session.

Lol!!! Funny you!! How can NBA interfere with the marital life of their members. The times they did, it always end up in a mess

A known virus will do it's work! Becareful what you wish for
